[@macj6845]

Racing just has to go underground again. Not that we shouldn't fight but we need to also face the reality that money and interests control the politicians --- far more than even in the past. Corruption is blatant and in-your-face, and nothing gets done. Both "sides" are complicit. The grander green agenda international global government scam is bigger than contacting congressman at this point. The answer is to be the change you want to see. So it starts with the local communities to simply not comply. Even if consequences become inevitable.

I enjoy his stuff, but it is funny to see him doing street drives in race cars over a week and then claim he doesn't do that. Also, the climate change argument is tired and does nothing for his position. The faster we get people to switch to electric, the easier it'll be for us to keep our race cars and toys on the road and under the radar from authorities. Bringing divisive politics into this will also alienate enthusiasts who truly need to be unified to get legislation passed.

Street racing is alot of fun but it's also a controversial way of racing since half the world likes it and the other half hates it because they only see the bad side of it and unfortunately negativity most of the time out shines the good in today's world.

How do we get this video infront of Joe and get Brent on the JRE because more eyes outside of the car community need to see this and be talking about how any modification away from OEM can be a 4k fine because if it's a possibility it will become a reality soon.

Here in Aus we gotta be careful cause the epa will fine people with noise pollution if they feel your car is too loud. They'll send a fine in the mail based on their persons opinion, no actual physical proof, no testing of the car, nothing but that means the fines easy to get dismissed, we just take it to court (costs nothing but a day) and the judges dismis it and get up the epa rep for their absolute lack of proof lol Half the cars they fine are under the legal limit anyway, if they'd bother to test em correctly then no fines would be issued. It's a oh let's just fine em and see who's gulabul enough to pay up...

When he said "i squeak on by, but i love it". I really felt that. I run a small shop as well, and i feel like every month we're just making it, and it also seems like the government is always coming by to get their cut. Just a few weeks ago, the local office came by to basically shake me down for 8k.

I found Brent through cleetus when he took bully down the strip and had tears in his eyes afterwards. In my 30 years I've never seen someone so passionate about something as what he is. To see him feeling so punished by the government is f**** ridiculous. There are far more things in this world for them to be worrying about than this.
